My grandfather decided not to go to Pakistan...because Delhi was his homeland. My relatives in Pakistan always admired us because they didn't have a functional secular state. I am proud to be an Indian because we still have courage to oppose religion-based citizenship.

The majority of INDIAN MUSLIMS have been historically poor and marginalised. They did not have any direct connection with the so-called Muslim rule. Associating poor Muslims either with Muslim rulers or with the so-called Islamic countries is absolutely wrong.

Just a small information: 15 August 1947 was the last Friday of the month of Ramzan. Muslims of old Delhi not merely celebrated the event but also set up a unique tradition of "kite flying" as most of the USTAD PATAGBAAZ were Delhi'Muslims.

Badri Raina raises an intriguing question: don't those whose flesh and bones are interred in the soil of India, to become part of its earth, have a greater claim to the matrubhumi than those whose ashes are poured into rivers that flow into the sea?

हमारा समाज कितना बीमार हो चुका है इसका अंदाज़ा इस बात से लगाया जा सकता है कि अब दिवाली हिन्दू और ईद मुसलमान हो चुकी है।

Ideologically Hindu Mahasabha is honest. They killed Gandhiji, so it's obvious for them to celebrate Godse. Following Gandhiji, we must allow them to express their views. However, we must oppose them in the realm of ideas because they believe in hate and violence.

Despite PM Modi condemning Pragya Thakur’s comment, calling Nathuram Godse a ‘deshbhakt’, Hindu Mahasabha is planning to celebrate his 110th birth anniversary.

दिलचस्प बात ये है कि गांधी की मौत, गांधी की ज़िंदगी की तरह असरदार है। गांधी एक ऐसी कहानी हैं जो हर बार सत्य की एक नयी परत खोलती है। बापू को नमन!

Jamiat Ulama doesn't represent Muslim communities. Hence, Mr Madani shouldn't behave like a SPOKESPERSON Muslim opinions on Kashmir and NRC are well known. Mainland Muslim communities don't recognise these as Muslim issues. Madani however wants to make them "communal"

Muslim appeasement, Muslim vote bank and good/bad Muslims are the metaphor of Muslim politics. BJP ALSO USES THEM. In 2004 BJP APPROACHED IMAM BUKHARI. HE SUPPORTED SMRITI IRANI AND ASKED MUSLIMS TO VOTE HER AND THE BJP. I collected this pamphlet during my fieldwork.

This is also a politics of appeasement. There should be a principled distance religious activities and the state. The state can certainly facilitate/celebrate any festival but it should not become a party to it.

Shahin Bagh protest has redefined the meanings of political protests. It's led by "MUSLIM WOMEN" who employ "GANDHI's" techniques to protect and reclaim "AMBEDKAR's" Constitutionalism to assert their INDIAN IDENTITY
